Yes, yes the Cheeseheads are letting their minds do a complete meltdown.. and it is very difficult holding a discussion with a portion of the fan base now.
Fire this coach, cut this player.. rabble rabble rabble... and some more rabble.
Ramble on... Here are things that haven't changed with this team:
1. The offensive line is inconsistent, it has been this way under Campen's watch.
2. Capers tries elaborate pressure schemes with a curtailed coverage package behind it, they clearly don't trust the backend of this defense and the communication issues have plagued this unit for a couple of years.
3. Ted and company believe in draft and develop strategy, they run the risk of putting young players in pressure spots early in their careers.
4. We have gambled on our starting QB staying healthy for a couple of years.
5. This team has been consistently an injury plagued team, whether it be the training staff, the program related decisions or bad luck. We have had to test our depth yearly.
And guess what.. we have been extremely successful in doing so with the above long term factors. Hell we won the Superbowl in 2010 in similar fashion.
But now, with the depth of the deep gutted like a salmon and a cool spring day, we are struggling. Mightily at times. Sooner or later, no matter how well you try and stack the team, there is a point in which you cannot continue to perform at a high level.
Rodgers was the last straw I believe for this injury ravaged team.. we are down receivers, lineman, linebackers, corners and QB's... I can't think of a position group that hasn't run thin at one point or time this season.
But it seems many have forgotten that history, and are only focusing on the now.. be damned with the rest.
Did I mention it is hard holding a conversation about the Packers right now.
"The oranges are dry; the apples are mealy; and the papayas... I don't know what's going on with the papayas!"
